REFRACTION OSCILLATIONS OF RADIO WAVES EMITTED BY THE SUN

Abstract

An experimental investigation is conducted of the ionospheric refractio periodically changing with location angle, of 1.5 and 2 m radio waves during radio-astronomical observations of sunrise. A relation is established between this phenomenon an the radio emission of a group of sunspots. A determination is made of the patial period of electron concentration waves in the ionosphere and their traveling speed along the earth's surface. A conclusion is drawn as to the identity of these waves with cellular waves in the ionosphere. Possible new properties are given for cellular waves; these properties are closely associated ith their occurrence and existence with active processes on the sun. (Author)
